I couldn't ever list them in order. I do prefer reading the books, I find some of the film interpretations a bit dodgy. Although since he has had more and more input in them, they are alot closer to the books.

10. Stand By Me - Because Mighty Mouse is a cartoon. Superman's a real guy. There's no way a cartoon could beat up a real guy.

9. Firestarter - Because Charlie will burn it down baby. Burn it all down.

8. Salem's Lot - Because this dude is seriously creepy...I don't care who you are!

7. Creepshow - Because this one had a tone all it's own. Reminds me of Halloween night no matter when I watch it.

6. Children of the Corn - Because I live in Illinois...and there's corn everywhere! Yikes!

5. Carrie - Because of this guy!

4. Maximum Overdrive - Because of Emilio, the Green Goblin and one of the very best movie soundtracks. Ever.

Bonus points as The King himself directed it.

3. The Dead Zone - Because I don't remember the last time I saw a bad movie starring Christopher Walken, Martin Sheen or Tom Skerritt...much less all three in one!

2. Christine - Because it was made by the master during a time when he could do no wrong. Man I hated that Buddy. Plus, have you ever looked at this car since and thought of anything else when you saw it? Nope.

1. The Shining - Because this isn't a Stephen King movie. It's a Stanley Kubrick and Jack Nicholson movie and when you start trying to picture scenes in your head, they come back to you pretty quick...and don't leave.

Just watched one I hadn't seen in years and hasn't been mentioned in here yet, The Dark Half. It's a good story, it just isn't done terribly well. The ending really is something else tho hehe
